Bid Increments

5mm caliber, 2.5" barrel, S/N 274. One of the finest examples of this extremely rare pistol, this example remains in extraordinarily fine condition throughout. The usual markings "brevet," etc. with "gagenau Suhl" on right side. No. 274 is superior in condition to several similar pistols sold at auction in the past five years, and stands as a superior example in every respect.

Condition

Barrel and frame retain nearly all of their original blued finish with some vertical scratching. Folding trigger retains much original straw coloring as does transfer bar. Hammer retains much original straw. Safety retains nearly all of its bright nitre blue. Checkered walnut grips rate excellent. Action is perfect. Bore is fine.
